00:00This June, the story of love in the form of Pride Month and the talk of sports came to an end.

00:08However, the story of Philippine World Cup Champion, Dubilin Amit,

00:15and the story of Bernadette Tinoy, did not end with inspiration.

00:21Many athletes named themselves in the history of Philippine sports

00:25because they did well and won medals in international competitions.

00:29And when it comes to billiards, Dubilin Amit's name will not be forgotten

00:34because she was the first two-time women's pool title holder.

00:38Aside from this, Dubilin not only won her career,

00:41but also her life of love with Jassy Salvador.

00:46Years and years ago, 20 years ago actually,

00:48we met at a small restaurant in UST.

00:53And then, that was one of the businesses of my parents.

00:57And then, when I graduated, her friends would eat there.

01:03So, that's where we met.

01:05But the story is too long.

01:07There are many people involved before...

01:11There are common friends.

01:12Yes, there are common friends.

01:14Within two decades, the two-time Q-star admitted

01:17that they have been through many challenges that strengthened their relationship.

01:21Dubilin and Jassy also thanked each other.

01:25I'm very thankful.

01:26I have a partner who really supports and tries to understand what she does.

01:31She tries to understand me most of the time.

01:34I just want to say that I appreciate everything that she does.

01:37Not only for me, but for my family and for everyone around her

01:41because she's genuinely a very generous person.

01:44She always thinks about others.

01:47So, I just want to say that I appreciate you.

01:51You'll have coffee with me later.
